Catalyst preparation with ball milling for catalytic synthesis of coiled carbon nanotubes

The aim of our experiments was the production of helically coiled carbon nanotubes selectively. The influence of catalytic particles prepared by ball milling (dry and wet method) was investigated on the growth. of coiled carbon nanotubes under conditions. ...

Superconducting phase in the layered dichalcogenide 1T-TaS_{2} upon inhibition of the metal-insulator transition

Helmuth Berger, László Forró, Marco Grioni, Balazs Sipos, Julian Piatek, Ping-Hui Lin, Peng Xu, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow

When a Mott metal-insulator transition is inhibited by a small amount of disorder in the layered dichalcogenide 1T-TaS2, an inhomogeneous superconducting state arises below T=2.1 K and coexists with a nearly commensurate charge-density wave. By angle-resol ...

Lithium niobate nanowires synthesis, optical properties, and manipulation

László Forró, Rachel Grange, Arnaud Magrez, Demetri Psaltis, Jae-Woo Choi, Chia-Lung Hsieh, Rita Smajda, Ye Pu, Ye Pu

Free-standing lithium niobate nanowires (LiNbO3) are synthesized by the hydrothermal route. The polarization response of the second harmonic generation (SHG) signal is measured in a single nanowire and used to identify the crystal orientation by matching w ...

Intracellular nanomanipulation by a photonic-force microscope with real-time acquisition of a 3D stiffness matrix

László Forró, Gérard Gremaud, Andrzej Kulik, Philippe Thévenaz, Michaël Unser, Giovanni Dietler, Stefania Puttini, Sylvia Jeney, Elena Bertseva, Amardeep Singh

A traditional photonic-force microscope (PFM) results in huge sets of data, which requires tedious numerical analysis. In this paper, we propose instead an analog signal processor to attain real-time capabilities while retaining the richness of the traditi ...

Infrared investigation of the phonon spectrum in the frustrated spin cluster compound FeTe2O5Cl

Helmuth Berger, László Forró

We present our optical investigations on the frustrated spin cluster compound FeTe2O5Cl, which develops a long-range antiferromagnetic order below 10 K. We measure the optical reflectivity from the far-infrared to the ultraviolet with polarized light. We f ...

Spontaneous exciton condensation in 1T-TiSe2: BCS-like approach

Helmuth Berger, László Forró, Philipp Aebi, Corsin Battaglia

Recently we found strong evidence in favor of a BCS-like condensation of excitons in 1T-TiSe2 [Cercellier , Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 146403 (2007)]. Theoretical photoemission intensity maps have been generated by the spectral function calculated within the exc ...

Three-dimensional force measurements in optical tweezers formed with high-NA micromirrors

László Forró, René Salathé, Fabrice Merenda, Mathieu Grossenbacher, Sylvia Jeney

The three-dimensional trap stiffness of optical tweezers formed with high-NA micromirrors is investigated by back-focal-plane interferometry and power spectrum analysis. Normalized stiffness values of kappa(xy)/P-trap =1.2(mu N/m)/mW and kappa(z)/P-trap = ...

Mechanical and electronic properties of vanadium oxide nanotubes

László Forró, Andras Kis, Neven Barisic, Jin Won Seo, Arnaud Magrez, Balazs Sipos, Martial Duchamp

Vanadium oxide nanotubes with a diameter of 20-100 nm and an aspect ratio of 50-100 were synthesized by hydrothermal method. Young's modulus of 20-80 GPa was obtained by bending measurements of individual nanotubes using an atomic force microscope. Electri ...

Identifying the electron spin resonance of conduction electrons in alkali doped SWCNTs

László Forró, Luka Ciric

We study the electron spin resonance (ESR) signal of pristine and potassium doped SWCNTs. We identify signals of a superparamagnetic background, a low intensity impurity, and of the conduction electron spin resonance (CESR). The latter only appears upon th ...

Preparation and characterization of SU8-carbon nanotube composites

László Forró, Moshe Judelewicz, Sébastien Jiguet, Arnaud Magrez, Marijana Mionic Ebersold

SU8-carbon nanotube composites have been produced to enhance the mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties of SU8 photoresists. Homogeneous composites materials have been obtained when multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) functionalized with COOH gro ...

Pressure Induced Superconductivity in Pristine 1T-TiSe2

Helmuth Berger, László Forró, Eduard Tutis, Balazs Sipos

The interplay between superconductivity and the charge-density wave (CDW) state in pure 1T-TiSe2 is examined through a high-pressure study extending up to pressures of 10 GPa between sub-Kelvin and room temperatures. At a critical pressure of 2 GPa a super ...

Synthesis and mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes produced by the water assisted CVD process

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Richard Meunier, Martial Duchamp, Klara Hernadi, Juan Carlos Andresen, Rita Smajda

Catalyst activity during the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is enhanced when water, a weak oxidizer, is introduced together with the carbon source. The height as well as the CNTs density can be controlled by fine-tuning t ...
